Data are presented on the gross ..beta.. activity in airborne particulates, precipitation, and samples of air collected at various locations thoughout North America during April, 1965; the content of /sup 131/I, /sup 137/Cs, and /sup 140/Ba in samples of milk collected during April, 1965; an estimation of the radiation dose to the population from radionuclides in milk from April 1964 through April 1965; the /sup 90/Sr content of selected foods from 1962 through 1964; and the radioactivity in surface waters of the US in Feb. 1965. Environmental levels of radioactivity at the General Electric Company, Pinellas Peninsula Plant, Fla., the Savannah River Plant, Aiken, SC, and the Shippingport Atomic Power Station, Penna., during the last half of 1964 are reported. One low-intermediate yield range underground nuclear test was announced during July, 1965.
